(a) The stress in the post is 1,568,000 N/m²
(b) The strain in the post is 7.61 x 10⁻⁶
(c) The change in the post’s length when the load is applied is 1.9 x 10⁻⁵ m.
<h3>Area of the steel post</h3>
A = πd²/4
where;
d is the diameter
A = π(0.25²)/4 = 0.05 m²
<h3>Stress on the steel post</h3>
σ = F/A
σ = mg/A
where;
- m is mass supported by the steel
- g is acceleration due to gravity
- A is the area of the steel post
σ = (8000 x 9.8)/(0.05)
σ = 1,568,000 N/m²
<h3>Strain of the post</h3>
E = stress / strain
where;
- E is Young's modulus of steel = 206 Gpa
strain = stress/E
strain = (1,568,000) / (206 x 10⁹)
strain = 7.61 x 10⁻⁶
<h3>Change in length of the steel post</h3>
strain = ΔL/L
where;
- ΔL is change in length
- L is original length
ΔL = 7.61 x 10⁻⁶ x 2.5
ΔL = 1.9 x 10⁻⁵ m

If a boat is going East at 15mph and there is a water current going southeast at 45° then the boat is being drifted southward. So since the current is going at an angle then it has a x and y component. So Rx refers to the x-component force of the current and Ry refers to the y-component of the current, and |R| refers to the magnitude of these forces.
Answer:
The x-component of the electric field at the origin = -11.74 N/C.
The y-component of the electric field at the origin = 97.41 N/C.
Explanation:
<u>Given:</u>
- Charge on first charged particle,

- Charge on the second charged particle,

- Position of the first charge =

- Position of the second charge =

The electric field at a point due to a charge
at a point
distance away is given by

where,
= Coulomb's constant, having value 
= position vector of the point where the electric field is to be found with respect to the position of the charge
.
= unit vector along
.
The electric field at the origin due to first charge is given by

is the position vector of the origin with respect to the position of the first charge.
Assuming,
are the units vectors along x and y axes respectively.

Using these values,

The electric field at the origin due to the second charge is given by

is the position vector of the origin with respect to the position of the second charge.

Using these values,

The net electric field at the origin due to both the charges is given by

Thus,
x-component of the electric field at the origin = -11.74 N/C.
y-component of the electric field at the origin = 97.41 N/C.
Answer:
d=360 miles
Donna lives 360 miles from the mountains.
Explanation:
Conceptual analysis
We apply the formula to calculate uniform moving distance[
d=v*t Formula (1)
d: distance in miles
t: time in hours
v: speed in miles/hour
Development of problem
The distance Donna traveled to the mountains is equal to the distance back home, equal to d,then,we pose the kinematic equations for d, applying formula 1:
travel data to the mountains: t₁= 8 hours , v=v₁
d= v₁*t₁=8*v₁ Equation (1)
data back home : t₂=4hours , v=v₂=v₁+45
d=v₂*t₂=(v₁+45)*4=4v₁+180 Equation (2)
Equation (1)=Equation (2)
8*v₁=4v₁+180
8*v₁-4v₁=180
4v₁=180
v₁=180÷4=45 miles/hour
we replace v₁=45 miles/hour in equation (1)
d=8hour*45miles/hour
d=360 miles
